Jul 24, 2020Her more mature, lyrically genius album!!! Well handed production and her vocals are getting better in each album she releases! I love that she’s taking risks on musical genres in her discography.

Jul 24, 2020This album is so perfect, timeless & magical.
It feels like a walk through the woods on a slow,whimsy,sun drenched summers day,like drinking cups of tea while watching the stars or rediscovered Polaroids that perfectly capture long forgotten memories.This album is perfect in every way shape & form,it will be past down though generations to come. -
Jul 24, 2020INCREDIBLE. She always doing an amazing job. I'm not a Taylor fan an being a hater with no reason for a long time in my life. Maybe the reason was the perfect lyrics and talent that hurt me so badly for not give me a single reason to hate her. I just surrended for her with Lover and this album makes me growl as a human, please Taylor... Forgive me. YOU ARE INCREDIBLE!
-
Jul 24, 2020Took me by surprise in every step of the way. The melody, the lyrics, the style. She once more reinvented herself and proved to be the artist of this generation.
-
Jul 24, 2020What a masterpiece. I love the cozy-comforting feeling you get while listening to it. Every track creates mood and vibe. Taylor’s BEST album tbh.

Jul 24, 2020One of her best successes yet. The vocals are so raw and beautiful and the lyrics are her most emotionally deep lyrics ever. Plus working with Aaron Dessner from The National was clearly one of her best decisions ever. They created magic!
-
Jul 24, 2020Taylor Swift's albums are all excellent. This one, folklore, gives me a nostalgic autumn young environment with every song/tale. Brilliant album.

Jul 24, 2020El folklore nos recuerda por qué Taylor es uno de los compositores vivos más importantes
-
Jul 24, 2020Um dos melhores álbuns da cantora e do ano. O clima que ele nos passa de tranquilidade e conforto é inexplicável.
-
Jul 24, 2020Taylor Swift's most mature, cohesive album in her decade and a half career. In an era of singles, Folklore is an album that demands to be listened to as such. Listen to it completely in one sitting. You won't be disappointed.
-
Jul 24, 2020It is an album full of feelings, good lyrics, love, passion, discipline, effort and a lot of dedication.
-
Jul 24, 2020This album is totally different than Taylor Swift do in your career. The sound is fantastic, folk, but still pop, and minimalist, just her, guitar and piano in most songs.
-
Jul 24, 2020Um álbum rico liricamente e lindas produções tocantes,serviu para mostrar o quao grande e swift,uma das maiores artistas e compositoras da historia
-
Jul 24, 2020her best album... just phenomenal.........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ICONIC..
-
Jul 24, 2020If you would have told me that Taylor would release and alternative album in the same year as Lover, I would have laughed in your face. This album is almost lyrically perfect and shows her true songwriting ability with really only a piano and a guitar.
-
Jul 24, 2020Each song is slightly different, some leaning more towards pop, some leaning toward country while others seem to be strictly alternative or indie. Folklore is quite different from her previous albums but this style of music perfectly fits with her incredible songwriting and storytelling abilities. Heartbreakingly brilliant.
-
Jul 24, 2020This is her most mature album yet. No songs to impress other people, just her beautiful lyricism, with the company of delightful sounds, together telling the stories of characters who may or may not know. Totally amazing.
-
Jul 24, 2020¿Puede haber algo más perfecto para atravesar esta cuarentena? No lo creo. La reina Swift me dejó impactado como siempre lo hace, con canciones acogedoras que me hacen sentir calma y melodías únicas que me acompañan en estos momentos tan extraños que trae el 2020.
-
Jul 24, 2020A flawless genre change from Swift once again! The entirely acoustic album showcases her stellar songwriting in a way that we’ve never seen before from her. Well done Taylor!!!
-
Jul 24, 2020The best, most mature, most lyrical album Taylor Swift has ever made. Reality and fiction are intertwined in this amazing indie record, where Taylor write intemporal stories, making the CD a sort of canonical book. Postmodernist vibes fill this masterpiece, mixing the old-Taylor with her new grown up self, revisiting her past and recreating brand new narratives.
-
Jul 24, 2020Truly Taylor Swifts Magnum Opus. She has outdone her self once again. Reinventing her music in a way even long time fans could barely recognize. This is an album for the people!
-

Jul 24, 2020This Album is a total masterpiece! All the songs are kinda interlinked to each other and telling beautiful stories of their own.
-
Jul 24, 2020Putssssssssssssssss O RED pode descansar em paz pois tem um sucessor a sua altura
-
Jul 24, 2020Taylor con este album sorpresa nos llenó de magia, cada canción es una historia, un cuento de hadas pero no necesariamente con finales felices, y eso es lo que lo hace tan bonito, real y puro.
-
Jul 24, 2020This isn’t absolutely perfect. It’s a new era for Taylor and she gave us new vibes, new sounds, amazing compositions, awesome collaborations and incredible lyrics that (as usual in Taylor’s music) tells you a story. Taylor say once: womans in music industry has reinvented more times that anyone else.
-
Jul 24, 2020The vibe of the album it's incredible and relaxing ,perfect for this dark times
-
Jul 24, 2020As an avid Taylor Swift fan, I might be a bit biased. But Swift's lyricism is at its peak! Everything about this album is pretty near perfect.

Jul 24, 2020honestly, wow. so beautiful, honest, unexpected, stripped down, and yet really composed.
congrats on convincing me folk-y songs could be a bop. -
Jul 24, 2020This is everything I’ve wanted from Taylor Swift, and at the perfect time. Her lyrical genius shines here.
-
Jul 24, 2020Swift returned with different sounds than she usually does. She manages to stabilize the production she uses with her voice, keeping her voice from drowning in production. the lyrics are very good, Swift never disappoints in that regard.
-
Jul 24, 2020This is Taylor’s best work to date, it’s her most cohesive, with her best lyrics yet, I love it
-
Jul 24, 2020Taylor Swift's new album showcases her undeniable songwriting talent. "folklore" is a collection of excellent written songs with minimalistic, simple and clean production. The singer takes a step further and keeps building her sound, but some songs were extremely similar to each other. The project is, for sure, a grower, which explains the 9.

-
Jul 24, 2020This album its so raw, sad, beautiful and tragic. It's not an album for charts, it's an album for a road trip or when you are feeling alone in a rainy day. I love it so much. Taylor's best work (lyrics) until now.
-
Jul 24, 2020Best album of the year, such an amazing contribution for the industry, Taylor power for writing lyric is just amazing
-
Jul 24, 2020Perfection! Her best work so far! Been listening to it since it was released! Well done T swizzle xx
-
Jul 24, 2020Folklore es un álbum con letras muy profundas, probablemente en algún punto conectas con cada una de las canciones. El sonido es muy personal de Taylor, parece algo que ella realmente amó hacer, algunas canciones te transportan un poco a sus primeros álbumes, pero con algo nuevo y fresco. En general es un álbum diferente al resto y con melodías que logran dar un sentimiento relajante.
-
Jul 24, 2020This album is poetic and beautiful. Taylor Swift has not only managed to bring back her amazing personal storytelling and beautiful melodies, but she then showed that she can write such gorgeous pieces of art (WITH A NEW SOUND) about others! It really feels like we’re taking a trip into an enchanted forest while Swift tells us some stories about the past.
-
Jul 24, 2020Taylor Swift made a perfect album and released it out of nowhere. An unexpected move, but a very welcome one.
-
Jul 24, 2020Really love this whole album... Great songs, Great lyrics, all around its the best. As a swiftie I've became more in love with Taylor.
-

-
Jul 24, 2020With a singular Bon Iver feature, Taylor's Folklore album feels like a waste of potential. With this record serving as an "experimental" attempt and a maturity in Taylor's music, the storytelling is convoluted, the instrumentation is uninteresting, and her Taylor's vocals are the same as they've always been. Songs like "betty" prove how little she has changed from her early work.
-
Jul 24, 2020Thank you for raising me. Growing up with you has been the most magical thing ever. Forever grateful for your existence, forever fascinated by your songwriting prowess and forever in love with the thought of you as a loving, kond, compassionate and brave human being. Love you for eternity. Love, Patrick David.
-
Jul 24, 2020This is probably the album that changes everything in Taylor's career, from their debut to today, this is such a different album, keeping what Taylor is, but better
-
Jul 24, 2020i don’t think i could’ve imagine anything better coming from taylor this time around. she’s outdone herself in every aspect.
-
Jul 24, 2020Folklore is an immersive album, with a pleasant vibe that makes you travel in your thoughts while listening, the songs are very well written and the instrumental fits perfectly with the lyrics.
-
Jul 24, 2020This album is that thing I never ever thought needed hear. The melancholy is one of the sensations I most love and this masterpiece is full of melancholy. I'M SO EXCITED FOR #folklore. Now is out and I love it from beginning to the end. Sending love to you.
-
Jul 24, 2020talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before
-
Jul 24, 2020Sensitive, deep, loving and tranquil. Unique Taylor Swift music, it doesn’t even compare to her other albums. You can see her growth, everything she learned throughout her life and experiences.
-
Jul 24, 2020Easily one of her best albums. It sounds like old Taylor but more mature. It’s refreshing and different from the music she has put out in recent years. Amazing, iconic, show stopping, breathtaking, masterpiece!!!

UncutAug 13, 2020It's a sharp turn to the left for Swift and a fine reminder that she is more than just a gleaming pop phenomenon, but a remarkable songwriter too. [Oct 2020, p.36]
-
Aug 7, 2020A modern-folk masterpiece which finds her moving from her previous pop bangers into stunningly simple yet sharp melodies, ‘folklore’ will be going down in Swiftie history as one of her most unexpected, and undoubtedly one of her best.
-
Aug 3, 2020These 16 tracks (17 on the deluxe version) play out quite pleasurably in their entirety, the joins between Swift, Dessner and Antonoff ultimately only of niche interest. But Swift’s powerful songs reach their climaxes with bittersweet orchestrations, rather than blows to the solar plexus or a ringing in the ears. Everything hovers; little truly lands.
